Quantum mechanical ab initio calculations at the MP2/6-3 lG\* level are performed on two proton bound dimer systems, [HsN-H-NHs]+ and [ H2N-H-OH,] +. Several calculations using a medium-size polarized basis set were performed as a check of the 6-3 IG\* results. Energies are calculated at heavy-atom

✦ Synopsis
The proton affinities of H$iO-, H&OH, H,SiOSiH9, and H$iOAlHF are predicted from ab initio molecular orbital theory using the recently developed GAUSSIAN-l (GI ) theory for computing accurate molecular energies. The calculated proton affmities (PA,,) are 356.0, 177.4, 179.0, and 302.4 kcal/mol, respectively. The proton affinities are also reported at lower levels of theory for comparison with the Gl results. Finally, a comparison is presented of the trends in the OH stretching frequencies and proton affnities.
